Dynare help (legacy posts)

Hi,

I’m trying estimate a dsge model in the 4.2.0 version of dynare with Octave. But it’s always given the same messenge: "failed to read matrix from file ‘dadogmv2’ ".
The data file (dadogmv2) is in .mat format. Can you give me a hand?

Thanks

Is your data file in the same directory than your MOD file?

What are the contents of your MAT file? It should contain as many variables as there are observables, with the same names, and with the observations stored as column vectors.

Best,
